Add /usr/X11R6/bin to the default path for sh in /etc/profile
and for csh in /etc/csh.login
if they are not already there:
# echo 'set path = ($path /usr/X11R6/bin)' >>/etc/csh.login
# echo 'PATH=$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin' >>/etc/profile
Or make sure all who use X put /usr/X11R6/bin
in their
shell's ``path'' variable.
Next either reboot or invoke ldconfig
as root to put the shared
libraries in ld.so
's cache:
# ldconfig /usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/X11R6/lib
If you had already configured X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc
or
X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/*
omit the xinit-config
or
xdm-config
archive or unpack it separately and merge in your
customizations.
The fscl
and f100
archives are optional and
can be omitted if you are short on space. The optional link
archive allows you to reconfigure and customize a X server binary.
The optional prog
archive is needed only for writing or compiling X
applications. The optional pex
archive contains pex clients and
libraries for building 3D graphics applications.
NOTE: You don't need to uncompress the font files, but if you uncompress them anyway you must runmkfontdir
in the corresponding font directory; otherwise your server will abort with the message ``could not open default font 'fixed'
''.
